Reflections on the Legend of the Spring Festival

The Spring Festival is intertwined with the warmth and celebration of family reunion, which has accumulated into a beautiful collective memory of a nation. The following are my thoughts on China New Year legends. Let's have a look.

Chapter 1: Legend of the Lunar New Year According to legend, in ancient China, there was a monster called Nian, with long tentacles and a ferocious head. Nian lived on the seabed for many years, and climbed ashore on the last day of each year, devouring livestock and killing people. Therefore, on the last day of every year, people in the village will help the old and bring the young, and flee to the mountains to avoid the harm of the "Nian" beast.

On the last day of the year, people in Taohua Village are rushing to take refuge in the mountains. An old beggar came from outside the village. He was leaning on crutches, carrying a bag on his arm, with an elegant silver beard and his eyes fixed on Ma Xiuxing. Some villagers sealed windows and locked doors, some packed their bags, some herded cattle and drove sheep, and people shouted boo everywhere, which was a scene of panic. At this time, who still has the mind to take care of this begging old man? Only an old woman in the east of the village gave the old man some food and suggested that he go up the mountain quickly to avoid Nian beast. The old man smiled and said, "If my mother-in-law lets me stay at home for one night, I will definitely drive Nian beast away." When the old woman looked at him carefully, she found that he was young, healthy, energetic and had an extraordinary world outlook. But she continued to persuade and begged the old man to laugh without saying a word. My mother-in-law had no choice but to leave home and take refuge in the mountains.

At midnight, Nian beast broke into the village. It found that the atmosphere in the village was different from previous years: the old woman at the east end of the village had red paper on her door and the room was bright with candlelight. In 2000, the beast trembled and gave a strange cry. Nian stared at her mother-in-law's house for a while, then screamed and jumped at her. "When we were approaching the door, there was a sudden explosion of" bang, bang, bang, bang "in the yard, and Nian trembled and dared not go any further. It turns out that Nian was most afraid of red, fire and explosion. At this time, my mother-in-law's door was wide open, and I saw an old man in a red robe laughing in the hospital. "Year" was frightened to disgrace and fled in confusion.

The next day was the first day of the first month, and the people who came back from refuge were very surprised to see that the village was safe and sound. At this time, the old woman suddenly realized and quickly told the villagers the promise of begging for the elderly. Villagers flocked to the old woman's house, only to find red paper on her mother-in-law's door, a pile of unburned bamboo still exploding in the yard, and several red candles in the house still glowing ...; In order to celebrate the auspicious arrival, ecstatic villagers put on new clothes and hats one after another and went to their relatives and friends' homes to congratulate and say hello. The story soon spread in the surrounding villages, and people knew the way to drive away the "night" beasts.

Since then, people have called this day New Year's Eve.

Since then, every year on New Year's Eve, every family has posted red couplets and set off firecrackers. Every household has a bright candlelight, so it is better to wait for the New Year. In the early morning of the first day, I want to say hello to my relatives and friends. This custom spread more and more widely and became the most solemn traditional festival in China.

Chapter 2: After reading the legend of the Chinese New Year, a long time ago, the snow water flowing from Qilian Mountain continuously flowed into Beida River, passed through the wasteland in the middle of Hexi Corridor, watered the fertile fields in that area and nurtured the people of all ethnic groups there. One day, a shepherd boy was herding sheep in the wasteland. He met an eccentric old man with a bag of stones and sand on his back and asked him how to get to Beida River. He said: "This Beida River used to be my home, but it was taken away by a group of people. I want to block it with stone sand this time. " When the shepherd boy heard this, he was very angry and immediately retorted, "Don't say that you used a bag of stone sand. Even if you move the mountains in the north, you still want to divert to the Beida River." Hearing this, the old man immediately turned the bag of stone salad to the left and right. Suddenly, many hills and a mountain rose from the wasteland, which is now Jiayu Mountain. It turned out that this strange old man was a turtle, but he read a spell to knock Jiayu Mountain down and block the Beida River. At this moment, there was a sudden strong wind, lightning and thunder, and the Jade Emperor sent Raytheon to kill the old man. At the place where he died, a mountain bag shaped like a turtle immediately rose, which is now the "Guigai Mountain".

Chapter 3: Legend of Chinese New Year: After reading it, Chinese New Year, Chinese New Year! I have been looking forward to the Spring Festival for a long time. New year's old man came to our side with joy, and our faces were filled with joy.

During the Spring Festival, everyone took out the fireworks already prepared, rushed out of the house and lit the fuse happily. Ah, how beautiful! A dazzling flower suddenly bloomed in the sky, and the sky was dyed very dazzling. Streets and alleys have long been children's world.

During the Spring Festival, I arrived at my grandparents' home early and sent an auspicious message: "Happy Spring Festival to you!" " "Blessing immediately warmed you, me and him. In the evening, I also sent a short message to my teacher, which read: I wish you good health and all the best. Your student: Lu Yao. And the teacher replied by SMS: Thank you, and I wish you a happy New Year and academic progress! When I finished reading, my heart was full of sweetness.

During the Spring Festival, I added another thousand yuan to my wallet. I really want to spend 100 yuan happily, but I remember my grandmother said, "It's not easy for dad to make money. Money must be spent where it is most needed." "I will endure.

It's Spring Festival now, and I'm one year older. I have increased my height and weight and gained a lot of knowledge, so I should be more sensible.

Ah, New Year's old man, thank you for this joy. In this year, I will definitely make you happy. Trust me! Cheer for me!
